My HPI MT2 reborn (as electric of course) - 05.28.2010, 08:35 PM

Here she is, my reborn HPI MT2 now sporting a brushless setup & an extended chassis. As you can see it's almost as long as my Slash. Now let's see how she performs

Thanks, yes it is custom, actually it's from CKRCcrawlers.com, they have it as a kit. I just went ahead & used a Sidewinder ESC & Velineon motor, it should be enough since I'll be using 2-3s lipo. As far as the Slash it's been one hell of a truck, tough as nails.

Did you do that klugy thing with the Traxxas sliders for the front or find a better way?

Hey CKRC stuff. Glad yours turned out, and you got everything in the shipment. I worked there for a week. Literally, Jake is a bit of a skiddish dude. It has to be tough, because of the way Jake races... He makes some good stuff, and it is the best LHS in my area. However, do to a sticky situation I hold back my urges to shop local.

Call them. It is no longer on the website but I am pretty sure they still have the custom lower and top plate for the chassis. As for everything else. I could probably get you the parts that are need if I asked what they were.

If they say no PM me I can check when I go in next time.

The kit will include everything you would need for the conversion, but it does require a little bit more work (a dremel helped a lot) but once you're done it'll be sweet Once you get the kit the instructions can be found here: http://www.ckrccrawlers.com/infockrc...on-p-2453.html

Yes I did till I find a long enough dogbone to replace it, but I've tested it & so far it's holding up.
